drinking from empty mugs khey became
badly drunk, and one curled up on sofa.
MIR. Alderman mentally drew one OF the
boys to him with a force that Lieuten-
ant. u. S. N, and two others present had
very hard WORK to overcome.
The supreme test OF the evening saw
the visit paid by one of the boys to North
ampton. Mass, where he entered the home
of a gentleman of the party. The boy
described the depOts at Buffalo aud Ro-
chester, passed Albany In safety, and
brought up at w Worcester. Being sent

walls, representing an old man with q
white beard, and of another with horse
and dog in 1t. He placed an extension ia.
bic in the sitting room, and when. the list
eners around the sleeping boy began TO
shake their heads the owner Of the house
said the boy was correct.
On being sent into the parlor he saw a
mantel with blue vase on one end and
dark one on the other. These, "a II proved,
were copies of vases in the British Mu-
scum, and were Of the colors given. On
the centre was square thing with
birds in it," the boy said. The birds look
. cd like canaries, and they'seemed to be in
glass case. The obisss turned out to be
peculiar clock on which were two pleas
ants, while smaller bigds were perched
upon it,. There'w was absolutely nothing
said to give the boysany linking OF the ar
ticle he described.
The boy was next sent. TO Trenton,
Mich, where he found vessel ready for
launching, and at the factory there dis
